What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
This small hotel is in fact a meticulously restored 15th-century Moorish residence, deep in Granada’s medieval quarter, in the shadow of the Alhambra.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Cobblestone lanes wind down to the Darro river and Paseo de los Tristes, resting right below the ramparts of the Alhambra.
The rooms
Individually decorated rooms feature painted timber ceilings and ornate tiles, with select top-floor rooms framing views of the Alhambra.
At the table
Breakfast is laid out beneath the brick barrel vaults of an ancient cistern, set along low tiled floors.
How it began

Architect Carlos Sánchez Gómez restored this fifteenth-century residence from its Nasrid foundations, earning a European heritage diploma in conservation.
